2031 April-June:
At the beginning of 2031, the nations were orgainzing in 3 main blocks for research, each guided by one of the 3 powers. The Turkish Federation's backstab to China, following the resign of Muhammad Zakharia Efendi, and rising of President Sami Cetin, left the People's Republic of China with a disadvantage against the other powers. The 3 research pacts currently are:
The Rio Agreement: EU, Brazil, Turkish Federation (31 Labs)
The Cheju Pact: China, South Africa (21 Labs)
The Pacific Pact: USA, Japan, Oceania (31 Labs)
The latter formed in the peace conference about Indonesia, where the following was decided:
Territorial and Economical Divisions:
Oceania: Indonesian Papua Island, Maluku Provinces, Nusa Tenggara Provinces, Eastern Java, City of Jogjakarta, for a total of 68 Millions of Population, 75 CI, 1 Research Facility, 4 Financial Centers, 1 Maintenance Facility, 2000 Wealth.
Malaysia: Island of Borneo (Kalimantan), Island of Sumatra and surrounding Archipelagos, Bantan Province (Westernmost Java province) for a total of 72 Millions of Population, 75 CI, 2 Financial Centers, 1 Maintenance Facility, 3000 Wealth.
Japan: Island of Sulawesi, Central and Eastern Java, City of Jakarta, for a total of 105 Millions of Population, 150 CI, 1 Research Facility, 9 Financial Centers, 2 Maintenance Facilities, 5000 Wealth.
USA: Military Base on the Island of Riau, 1 Research Facility, 1 Maintenance Facility.

The occupation was everything but swift, indonesian civilians were obviously not happy against Japanese, and especially, the Oceanian occupation, which was perceived as a weak nation.
Malaysian affairs went swifter, as many inhabitants in Kalimantan and the province of Aceh saw them as liberators, and joined happily the Malaysian Federation. The rest of Sumatra, however, didn't.
[Oceania: -30% Stab, Japan: -20% Stab, Malaysia: -10% Stab]
A trial in the USA found guilty every important member in the government, altough decisive evidence was found only for the Military Department. 3 Members of the Indonesian government, fearing a fake process that would sentence them to death, preferred a suicide. Needless to say, the case went immediately worldwide, and USA's prestige suffered, particularily in the eyes of SE Asian nations.
However, the world was distracted by the announcement of a new technology discovered in China. It seemed clear that the People's Republic was out-teching everyone, but EU announced 10 days later that the Turkish Federation gave them blueprints for Geological Survey Sensor, previously discovered in the Cheju Pact, and announced that the new Pressurised Water Reactor Prototype was operating. The world was stunned by the fact that EU quickly caught up with Chinese progress, and even more when, 1 month later, Brazil announced its own breaktrough in a secret tech, meaning that EU scientists worked alone, with no help from Brazil. And what could be called the "Coup de Grace" was the launch of the ESA Military Orbital Shipyard, the first Human Orbital Factory. USA and the pacific pact were lagging behind, but they announced that TN Tech was implemented on 30th June. The future of the RCEA is now unclear, and so is the agreement with Oceania. However, China was not sitting idle. As Malaysia joined the Pacific Pact with 2 more labs, China managed to influence Arabia and Persia, gaining 5 more labs for their Scientific Department. The EU concentrated their effort on South America, and signed a trade agreement with Argentina. TN tech was becoming more and more common around the world, and the outer space is full of resources, waiting for the nations of earth.

Notes for the players: Malaysia needs stats, i'll make them in the next update.
New units arrive with the next update, and ou have to choose between 2 Armor or 3 Infantry. Construction times are the same.
Lord Dalek, India and Russia are not aligned with anyone. You're free to choose. They'll both get TN tech this year.
